The court-appointed receiver, Mark Pomerantz, told a federal judge Thursday he expects to bill about $1.4 million for the firm's work in tracking down $100 million in Dreier's assets--mostly in homes, yachts, artwork and other property. (As we wrote last week, that won't be nearly enough to pay victims of Dreier's frauds-- whose losses total upwards of $500 million, according to lawyers involved in the matter--or general creditors of Dreier LLP. Victims and creditors began filing claims this week, and the value of their claims is already up to about $450 million, according to this NYLJ story.)
